I cannot print two sided on my mac os x 10.9.3

Hello, I have searched high and low but I can't figure out how to turn on two-sided printing on my MacBook running Mac OS X 10.9.3. It was working before and now all of a sudden I cannot click it anymore. 
These are some pictures of what it's showing me. 
Can somebody please help me figure out how to turn on two-sided printing? 
It would be greatly appreciated
Thank you!

Hello,
Thanks for posting, can you help me with the HP Printer model no. From the screenshot i understand you are looking for settings on Canon Printer . 
If the printer supports Auto Duplex and have it installed the driver should detect the same. Can you try with the AirPrint Driver and see if that helps.
I have attached the screenshot of one of HP Printer
Thanks

  • When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    Or, it is set the other way around (which makes more sense). Even though you are in Landscape mode, it is binding on the Long Side of the paper. Since you are in Landscape, you would want it to bind on the short side.
    Think of the Binding like a Book. How would you flip the finished pages to read the “book.” Where it would be bound in the imaginary book is how you want it to print.

  • My Macs cannot print two sides if using borther HL5370DW series

    My Mac Desktop and Mac Laptop cannot print two sides of one paper when I use brother HL 5370DW.  It started from last week.  My PC cannot print two-sided paper by brother HL5370 DW, and my Mac can print two-sided paper if I use the HP printer on Mac.  I highly suspect the problem is from the updates of Mac.  Do you have the same or similar problem these days?
    I have tried to re-install the brother printer driver, and it did not work.
    Thank you!

    Have a read of this post. These Brother owners found the same issue after a recent driver update and managed to resolve the problem.

  • How do you get Workforce 840 to print two-sided

    I can't figure out how to get my new Epson Workforce 840 to print two-sided (iMac running Mac OS 10.7.2).  From MS Word the two-sided option (in Layout) is grayed out.  In Mail and other Apple applications the Preset for two-sided printing is off and I can't figure out how to turn it on.  The two-sided print function works as expected when I print from Windows 7 software (Bootcamp) or if I use the LCD controls on the printer to have copies printed two-sided.  Probably something obvious, but I'm a newbie to the Mac world, would appreciate some help.  Thanks.

    I am not sure if it is still valid for OS X 10.7, but check the User Guide.  Go to Output Settings
    Then make your choces:
    All instructions and images are from the online Users Guide on the Epson US website.

    I just downloaded Acrobat reader Dc for windows and cannot print two sided.

    Hi Michael,
    I can understand your concern & will guide you in the right direction.
    To print both sides your printer should support duplex printing, please refer to this KB doc. Print double-sided | Acrobat, Reader
    In case if you still experience any issue please let us know, we will be happy to help you.

    Hi,
    Please follow the steps below in order to automatically print two-sided print jobs:
    1. Verify the duplex-printing accessory has been installed properly. To verify this open the System Preferences and go to Print & Fax. Open the print queue of your printer. Click on Printer Setup and from the tab menu choose Driver. Verify the box next to HP Two-sided Printing Accessory (Duplexer) is checked.
    2. On the File menu, select Print. The Print window appears.
    NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click Show details to see all available settings.
    Note: If you use Adobe Reader, click teh button to launc the system print dialog.
    3. In the expanded Print window you will find next to Copies the checkbox for Two-Sided. Check the box.
    NOTE: If the checkbox does not appear within the specific application print dialog, skip this step.
    4. To select the binding type click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
    Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
    5. Select Layout from the drop-down menu.
    6. Set the Two-Sided option as Long-Edge binding (Portrait), or Long-Edge binding (landscape).
    You may save the settings for future use by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset... Any used preset will remain default till another preset will be used.

  • Cannot print double-sided from Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2

    Cannot print double-sided from Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2
    Problem limited to Adobe Acrobat, MS Office 2008, Pages, Keynote.
    Can print double-sided from Safari and Mac Mail
    Using HP Color LaserJet 2605dtn. Have downloaded most recent driver from HP
    Computer: Apple MacPro Tower, 6GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM, Quad-Core Intel Xeon, Processor speed = 3.2 GHz

    Correct way to install new driver is go to Printer Utility and delete That printer from the list.
    Then install the new driver.
    Then go back to Printer Utility and add the new driver Back
    Then go to systems preferences and to Print Fax (or Printer if no longer setup for fax) and set up for the the printer and set as default.
    This way you shouldn't have to go into either print menu or Page setup menu and set for desired printer.
    most hp printer in the pint menu you click copies and pages and mouse down to two sided pages you choose either book (facing pages) or Tablet (printed as you would a Tablet that's bound at the top.
    you need to test a two page document to see which does correctly for you. Its best never to have the application set for two sided. in fact if you have set for two sided in both one counter acts the the other.
    So set it only in the printer menu and no where else.
    Also once you set up you can save printer profiles that you can go back to click on the Presets button mouse down to very bottom save with a anme you can remember even put the words two-sided in title then save. Then you can go to that preset and print your heart out.

  • OfficeJet 4500 will not print two sided over network

    I'm running on Windows 7 with an OfficeJet 4500 G510n-z over WiFi.  Printer works great except that it will not print two sided.  We've used a non-WiFi 4500 to print two sided before.  With the new printer the first pages print and the pop-up shows on the laptop (prompt to flip paper over) but nothing happens.  The second pages never print.
    I've run all of the HP print and network diagnostics.  Everything appears to be OK.

    The solution below was found on the sticky post at the top of this board "Fixes and Workarounds from HP"
    I think the patch below only applies if you have the original printer software installed, I assume this issue was fixed in later versions of the printer software, Read the patch information carefully.

  • How to print double sided from my Mac to my Canon MG6350

    I have looked up everywhere on the internet and youtube of how to print double sided from my Mac Book Pro. I am using OSX 10.8.5.
    All of the dicussions I have looked up before have told me to go to System Preferences>Print & Scan>Options & Supplies> Driver and then tick the little box that comes up and it will allow you to print double sided. I have tried doing this but THERE IS NO DRIVER TAB!!!
    I was just wondering if there was a solution to this as I can print double sided from my other appliences, like the PC and iPad, it is just my Mac Book Pro that doesn't work.
    It has become a big problem for me as I'm studying at college and I need to print things double sided quite regularly. I really need this to work.

    The print dialog has several drop-down menus, one of which initially shows the name of the application you're printing from. If the printer supports duplex, you can choose
    Duplex Printing & Margin
    from that menu. You should then see a checkbox marked
    Automatic Duplex Printing

  • How to print two-sided automatically in Adobe Reader 10.1.2?

    Hello, when I want to print two-sided with my printer I select this option:
    And my printer does it automatically, I do not have to reload the paper.
    However, in the new version of Adobe Reader, after selecting that option this one is automatically checked:
    And I have to reload the paper manually:
    Can the problem be solved? This did not happen in previous versions.
    The printer is an HP P1606dn and I am using Adobe Reader 10.1.2. Sorry about the screen captures in spanish.

    Hi, Shatik
    Thanks for replying.
    The DFS shares are mapped as a network drive. This is done just once using a batch file that uses the persistent switch. No roaming profiles, no username\application data path.
    Since posting this I can now access PDF's, but many of our staff are now unable to scroll through an entire pdf without Adobe Reader hanging. Again, removing the checkmark in the protected mode option allows full scrolling of a pdf.
    Disabling/enabling antivirus real-time scanning makes no difference.

  • Officejet 7310xi does not print two-sided automatically after installing Windows 8.1

    When I first purchased my Officejet 7310xi and installed it on my Windows XP desktop PC it worked fine printing two-sided documents automatically. I recently purchased a new desktop PC with Windows 8 and upgraded it to Windows 8.1 and downloaded and installed the Officejet software drivers from the HP download site. But now the printer will not print two-sided documents AUTOMATICALLY -- when this option is selected, I get a pop-up screen telling me to remove the documents from the out tray, turn them around, and reinsert them in the feed bin, i.e., it acts as if I requested two-sided MANUAL printing.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Make sure the Automatic Duplexing option is enabled:
    Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
    Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
    Click the Device Settings tab.
    Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
    Now Automatic Duplexing should become available.
